Its a sad day...
this weekend I'm gettin my new car, so my v6 is going back to stock so I can trade it in. Last night I was sad as I removed my cold air intake....
today will consist of removing my springs, underdrive pulley, shifter, and exhaust.
The gears will stay.
This is kinda bittersweet

Nostalgia. You'll probably get over it as soon as you turn the key on your new GT. Congratulations.

I doubt completing any task in her garage could be considered alot of work.

I'm just surprised she kept the stock exhaust system.

1st of all, it is Bassani.
2nd of all, it won't fit on a GT.


I'm working on getting a 04 yellow 5 speed coupe GT.
I of course won't be a V6 hater at all. I love my v6 very dearly and am sad about gettin rid of it.


So far today I've done the 2 front springs, the cold air intake, and the shifter.

I'm about to do the 2 rear springs and the exhaust.

I keep all my stock parts! Just in case

Its a b**** tryin to get the stock springs back in. My car looks funny... lower in the rear, and 4x4 in the front.
That'll change in a bit though.

Looks to me like here you said you can't put it on the gt it will osund worse then stock. I'm assuming you mean sound.
well there's no way it'll go ON the GT.

I plan on cleaning it up and selling it.
